This reminds me of the terrible waste of using 25% of TV's modulation just
to transmit a sync pulse when modern sets could lock on far less. In fact,
there no need to transmit a sync pulse at all now since it can be generated
internally in the TV using the color burst as reference. Many cable
descramblers do just this- regenerating missing sync that was removed in the
scramming process. This would leave almost the whole envelope left for
video modulation greatly improving S/N. Ofcourse all this will soon be mute
anyway as analog goes the way of the dinosaur.
